The mythology that serves as the background of the story here has stepped up a notch.
Sparrow is as crazy as ever. If he seemed eccentric in the first 2 movies, this movie certifies him a lunatic.
The mix of Sparrow's giddy reality and the serious backdrop of the rest of the story does not always mesh well, however. Sometimes you don't know what direction the movie wants to take. Then again, maybe that was the direction the writers wanted to take.
This being the final movie in the series, everybody from the first two movies is back, plus a few more new faces are introduced. That means that inspite of the fact that the movie is almost 3 hours long, some actors appear only briefly.
It was annoying for the movie trailers to hype up the appearance of Chow Yun Fat, only to find out that you already saw half of his appearance in this movie in the trailer. I was expecting to see more of him.
